It is really saddening that the most followed sport in the world isn’t the most followed out here in India. But things are slowly and gradually changing and what is really heartening to see is that it is changing for the good. The beautiful game is no longer an orphan and it has a lot of takers and all of this is due to the advent of Indian Super League.

Hereis the Indian Super League winners journey.

The 2015 final of ISL was played between the two most deserving teams, Athletico De Kolkata and Kerala Blasters. The two teams slugged it out in the DY Patil stadium and were no less than a cracker jacker. With the ebb and flow, the match was finally settled by a goal from Mohammed Rafique of Kolkata and ISL had its first champions Athletico De Kolkata.

Into the second season of Indian Super League, it was time to convince people that ISL was there to stay. The standard of matches was a notch higher and the players gave it all they had. And the best part was that the marquee players were outshone by the lesser-known players. The season also saw the emergence of homegrown talents.

About the 2015 ISL final, the topsy-turvy match had FC Goa leading at first but and an inspired Steve Mendoza( aided by some false decisions by the referee) made sure Chennaiyan FC won the match. The fight that ensued real tampered the image of the league and the Goan owners were given a hefty fine.

The third season was a replica of the first season in terms of the final match that was played. This time albeit the final was played in Delhi. The winner but remained the same, Kolkata defeated the team from Kerala on penalties (4-3).
